In March, 196 1 was announced by the State Council as the first batch of national key cultural relics protection units.

The development of history

Jionji was built in the 22nd year of Zhenguan of Emperor Taizong (648). It is a royal temple built by Prince Li Zhishi of Sui Dynasty on the site of May 6th Temple to commemorate the nurturing kindness of his mother, Empress Sun Chang.

According to the The biography of Master Sanzang, at the beginning of construction, there were more than 10 courtyards in the temple, with nearly 1900 rooms, which was huge. Shortly after the completion of Ji 'an Temple, Xuanzang moved from Hongfu Temple to the "translation field" of Dongsi Temple to translate the scriptures, and founded a major sect of Buddhism in China, Ci 'en Sect.
